    with £100 you really dont want to be playing higher than 5/10p.

    even that level only gives you 10 buyins (at 100bbs)

    id say try 5/10 first see how you get on!!

    or try £2/3 dyms..........

    lol don't play 50p/£1

    it depends how good you think you are, if you're still a beginner/learning the game I would stick to 2p/4p cash games and sng's/mtt's with a buy-in of £3 or less.

    PLay 2£ deepstacks, max 5£ mtts and 2p/4p cash. 



    you have to take into account how much losing the hundo would affect you and your life circumstances

    so if you can reload and still eat be more aggressive with your monies, if you cant eat the mo take the hundo out and go maccy ds!

    50/£1 :O

    £20 DYMs :O


    thats a very poor BR management, 1 and 5 BIs eeek.


    2/4p or 4/8p MAX for cash and £5.50 MAX DYM

    welcome

    I'd do:-

    cash - 2p/4p which does get a bit creative!
    dyms - upto £1/£2
    MTT's - deepstacks £2.20

    You should get plenty of experience that way.

    don't go much higher as it would be easy to lose a large proportion of your bankroll

    Good luck

    Give the £2.20 Deepstacks a go, every day at 7.15pm plenty of chips and time to learn how to play proper poker. ;)

    Whats that then?

    Totally disagree as I play in the £2.20 Deepstacks & I ihaven't a clue what i'm doing!

    Seriously though, they are fun & u get 2-4 hrs for £2 - u never know you may even win the odd one (If I can win em anyone can!) for approx £35 - thats another couple of weeks worth for free.

    Give em a go - U may be lucky enough to knock me out - (gotta be quick tho)

    thanks for your advice , i think i should have been a little clearer , i allow myself £100 per day to play with
    mon - fri , i cant reload as my other half watches me play , i built my actual bankroll to a little over £1000 which is what i have to play poker with , as u can tell im not the best player by any means and its always bad beats that get me, playing with £100 per day would u still advise the very small amounts ????

    But very true, i woulda put it if donkey didnt

    lol £100 a day is completely different, it depends on how many games you want to play and how long you can play for? do you prefer cash or mtt?

    still if your bankroll is just over £1000, i certainly wouldnt be saying to myself play with a £100 per day because a few bad days could really take a hit to your bankroll. I would say £5.50 DYMS would be a good way to get started. And also the 8:15 £5.50 deepstack, as that is great value.

    must be lucky to have that sort of bankroll to play with ... wish i did
